Episode 38: Three of Cups

Published: April 25, 2018, 10 p.m.

b"Themes of enclosure reflect and refract in the abundant 3 of Cups, where the messenger god brings his quicksilver tongue to the world of emotions.\\xa0 Mercury rules this second decan of Cancer; festivities and games preside over the hour, and all good things. Yet there is an undercurrent of danger; the most tempting fruits may be those that are forbidden. In this episode we also speak of Demeter and Persephone, Mercury as psychopomp, Dionysus, the threefold nature of women - the three Graces and the nine Muses.\\xa0 We consider grapes and pomegranates, grains and gourds, journeys of safe and unsafe passage.\\xa0 We consider the armor of the Chariot and the confinements of Binah, and the layered protection of eggs and walled gardens.
